  • Most critical review

    A good starter book

    If you are just learning sign language this book is good for quick "look ups' rather than a study guide, handy to have to flick through rather than for genuine reference. While it does contain all of the basics you would need to assist you in learning, the drawings are very confusing and being honest are badly drawn which can easily confuse you. It would benefit greatly from better descriptions, these don't need to be complicated but just a note to guide you on how to use your hands would make this book infinitely more useful. It's handy to have, but I would recommend you save your money and buy a pocket signing dictionary instead.

  • BSL for Dummies

    Good all round primer. Liked the way the BSL grammar is shown. Please note that sign variances do not mean that one way is better than another. Make the choice most suitable for your usage and be aware that clearly mouthing the sign is more important.

  • A great introduction to learning sign language

    Just what you need to get started on learning sign language. Would probably be aided by classes or further instruction, but definitely helps you to understand the basics.

  • Great introduction to BSL

    It covers a lot of different topics well, a very useful guide to signs, and gives hearing people like me an insight into Deaf culture.
